★★★★★ 5.0 Rebekah Newte · Dec 2025

This place was recommended by the Local Hostel and was very family-friendly and prices were actually amazing. I ordered 2 eggs any style, home potatoes and sausage with side of toast, all cost 9.00, very good prices and service.

I spent one week here this summer coming for both breakfast and lunch every day as I was working nearby. It still has its old charm and at any time of the day it’s a nice spot to sit down and relax with a classic diner meal. The food quality is on par with what you pay, is filling and feels fresh. It’s cash only, but the ATM fee is only 1.75 as of Aug 24’. The service is fast and they are all very friendly inside. They play nice music too. Overall very happy with the week I spent eating here and will return whenever I can. There’s only so many nice spots like this that haven’t been corporatized left, so I recommend supporting their business. Thanks for the great service Niforos.

What can I say great little diner in LIC, the staff is always great, food is on point. Delivery guy is fast. I always order the BLT with turkey. The Best. Been coming here for years. Prices are very reasonable. Great atmosphere, down to earth people like it should be.. love it.

Rating: 4.8/5 It’s basic, but nostalgic. Miss the old dive diners? Pretty much all the good ones are gone or have succumbed to the Instagram wave as a last resort to stay afloat. Is this place a diner or a coffee shop? Honestly, it doesn’t matter what you call it—you’ll get really good, no-frills food at a decent price. The traditional Greek owners and chefs are in the back, cranking out food like it’s nothing. The service is wonderful and always felt welcome when I sat down too order. I’ve been here a few times while in the area for work, and it’s always a treat to stop by and grab breakfast on a slow morning. The BEC is amazing too (but I forgot to take a picture)

★★★★★ 5.0 Lucky C · Nov 2025

A perfect no-frills eatery for a quick bite. The menu is not huge, but it has all the diner staples and a wide range of non-pork breakfast meat options. Food is prepared fresh on the spot and service was very efficient. Highly recommend the hash browns—incredibly crispy, well-seasoned, and comforting. Wonderfully cozy spot, I know I’ll be coming back real soon!
